Shoulders Machines

A key area of the body that ties form with function, the shoulders are an area of focus for anyone interested in enhancing their strength. They are engaged during all manner of arm and upper body exercises, and training them can help you with stability and injury prevention, particularly if you enjoy finding the limits of your strength.

When you go to buy a shoulders machine you may be overwhelmed by the choice. Gym machines for shoulders come in many different forms (plate-loaded, pin-loaded, multi-functional), each designed to work a slightly different muscle group slightly differently (delts, lats, traps, pecs and more).

Shoulder Machines FAQs

What gym machine works your shoulders?

There are a few types of gym equipment designed for the shoulders, each of which targets a slightly different group of muscles. These include vertical press machines, lat machines, pec and delt machines, incline benches and multi-press machines. Shoulder machines tend to focus on strength and tone, and are distinct from more cardio-focused equipment that happen to work out the shoulders, such as rowing machines.

What is the best machine for the upper body?

The best gym machines for shoulders will depend on the muscles a person wants to work and the results that a person wants to achieve. Shoulder machines like those listed above are great for developing strength and tone, while equipment like rowing and ski machines are great for building cardiovascular fitness.
